§ 35. Mr. T. Williamsasked the Minister of Labour whether he will explain why Miss I. M. Brown, of Moorend, near Doncaster, was denied benefits for the week commencing 5th April, seeing that her employer refused to allow her to work one week's notice?
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydBenefit was disallowed by the court of referees after full consideration of the evidence, including that given personally by the applicant.
§ Mr. WilliamsWill the Parliamentary Secretary say on what grounds the court of referees or, anyone else can refuse benefit to a person who is refused employment by her employer?
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydIn this particular case the court of referees came unanimously to the conclusion—
§ Mr. WilliamsTwo only.
§ Mr. Lennox-Boyd—that the claimant had left her work without just cause.
§ Mr. WilliamsIs not the Parliamentary Secretary aware from correspondence sent to his Department, that the young lady handed in her resignation and was told off by her employer the same day, and that, therefore, while she was willing to work out' her week's notice, she was deprived of employment by her employer? If this is the kind of decision reached by the chairman of this court of referees, will he consider the advisability of dismissing him?
